America goes into the darkness

The greatest satisfaction today over the re-election of
Obama is not being felt in the Democratic Party. It is not being felt among the
media, who are no longer objective observers but have turned instead into corrupt
partisans who ruthlessly censored the truth about Obama and helped peddle his
demonising propaganda about his opponent. It is not being felt among the gloating,
drooling decadents of the western left who now scent a great blood-letting of
all who dare defy their secular inquisition. No, the greatest satisfaction is surely
being felt in Iran.

With four more years of Obama in the White House, Iran can
now be sure that it will be able to complete its infernal construction of a
genocide bomb to use against the Jews and the west. World War Three has now
come a lot closer.

It is said that, with likely gridlock in Congress over
domestic issues, Obama will concentrate on foreign policy. We should all shudder.
So far, Obama has empowered Iran to destabilise the region; supported Islamist
takeovers in Egypt and Libya; is backing al Qaeda affiliates in Syria; refused
to come to the aid of Americans being attacked by al Qaeda in Benghazi as a result
of which four American officials were murdered; and hung Israel out to dry
against its genocidal Palestinian attackers.

A report
last month that Obama was secretly negotiating with the Iranian regime took
on an even more incendiary aspect a few days ago with a claim
that these negotiations were being led by his close friend and adviser, Valerie
Jarrett.

If Jarrett was indeed involved, that should strike a deep
chill into anyone who has not joined the lemming-like leap over the edge of the
western cliff. For Iranian-born Jarrett – who Obama has admitted he consults
before he takes any decision and who has been said
to act as his ‘spine’ -- is a far-leftist with roots deep in the corrupt Chicago
Democratic machine. Indeed, Jarrett has been credited
with originally smoothing Obama’s entry into Chicago’s political elite, and is
now said to be – despite her controversial background -- the
most influential person in his circle.

There have also been claims
that she advised Obama against killing Osama bin Laden, which although
unsubstantiated are all too credible. If this wholly ill-equipped and sinister
individual really has been leading secret negotiations with Iran – raising the
fear that far from preventing Iranian nuclear terrorism Obama intends to allow the
regime a face saving compromise under cover of which it will finish building
its nuclear weapon – then Obama’s perfidy against the west really is as bad as
some of us feared from the start.

Four years ago, America put into the White House a sulky
narcissist with close links to people with a history of thuggish, far-left,
black power, Jew-bashing, west-hating politics. In his autobiography, Obama himself described his mentor, the communist
agitator Frank Marshall Davis, as being a promoter of black power; in
1995 Obama went on the Million Man March organised by the black power
activist and radical antisemite Louis Farrakhan; for twenty years, Obama
belonged to a church whose pastor, Jeremiah Wright, peddled antisemitic
conspiracy theories, denounced black assimilation into white society and
in June 2009 claimed that Jews were controlling Obama and were
preventing Wright from talking to him.

Obama’s agenda has been crystal
clear from the get-go: to increase the power of the state over the citizen at
home, and to neutralise American power abroad. Four more years of this and he’ll
almost certainly have succeeded. The impact
upon western security could be cataclysmic.

Britain and the Europeans love Obama because they think he
will end American exceptionalism and turn the US into a pale shadow of themselves.
What they don’t realise is that, all but lobotomised by consumerist rights, state
dependency, victim culture, sentimentality, post-religion, post-nationalism and
post-Holocaust and Empire guilt, Britain and Europe are themselves fast going
down the civilisational tubes.

Romney lost because he refused to provide an alternative to
any of this for fear of being labelled a warmonger, flint-heart or social
reactionary. He refused to engage with any of the issues that made this Presidential
election so truly momentous. Up against the bullying of the totalitarian left,
he ran for cover. He played safe, and as a result only advertised his own weakness
and dishonesty. Well, voters can smell inconsistency from a mile away; they
call it untrustworthiness, and they are right.

Romney lost because, like Britain’s Conservative Party, the
Republicans just don’t understand that America and the west are being consumed
by a culture war. In their cowardice and moral confusion, they all attempt to
appease the enemies within. And from without, the Islamic enemies of
civilisation stand poised to occupy the void.

With the re-election of Obama, America now threatens to lead
the west into a terrifying darkness.
